About Eugen Lacroix
Eugen Lacroix (1886-1964) was a restaurateur from Baden who moved to Frankfurt am Main in the early 1920s. His curiosity for culinary delights gave him the idea of pre-cooking specialties that required a lot of effort in the kitchen so that it would be easier for both professional and amateur chefs to delight their guests.
A distinguished career
In 1921, he founded a small business that initially produced truffled goose liver pâtés. Other delicacies followed and just four years later his idea had grown into an international delicatessen company with 350 employees. He was the only German in the "Academie Culinaire de France" to receive the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany and the Badge of Honor of the City of Frankfurt for his achievements. An ideal of culinary creativity that Lacroix still guides today and has firmly established as a leading brand in the delicatessen segment.
